15 Inseranda
Observations
VI. Miscellaneous
§.45
Anonymous
One case there is in which as far as
the interest of the individuals exposed to the exercise of coercive
power is concerned advantages that would be derived from the transference of the authority
from an individual officer to this or any Board, appears presents itself as to be indubitable. I speak
of the individuals, on whose account it is that
the apprehensions of anonymous information
are always entertained: for upon the whole
public and individuals taken together whether
any such change would be eligible is a very different another and
much more complicated question. I mean the case in view is this of the
Office for the Superintendence of Aliens. Experience
here comes in aid of theory. More instances
than one have presented themselves in the writer
of this paper in which for want of such division
of authority, but had it not been for an accident, what appeared
to him to be injustice would have been done: one
in which he was happened to be himself the cause, and the sole
cause, of the avoidance of that injustice. But
whence comes the danger in this case? — From
this — that in this case, to the universal faculty
of receiving anonymous accusation is added a
special coercive power altogether arbitrary: altogether
clear of every one of those constrictions already enumerated of
which the beautiful protective complexion character of the judicial the judge
character of procedure in this country is composed. Banishment
including privation of livelyhood, thence perhaps
of life, the punishment given to be inflicted: witness accusing witness
